At that, ten bones a throw It tome at Iff. and especially so when you are losing. What sayeth thou? . Tit for Tut The subject of birthdays came up during the conversation. The elder ly lady. telling her age, remarked that she was born on the 23d of Ap ril. Her husband, who waa present, observed, "I always thought you were born on the 1st of April." "People might well Judge so," re sponded the lady, "in the choice I made of a husband." o Keep up the (iate It isn't often that 1 go to church, but somehow 1 was persuaded to go Sunday. There was a bunch pres ent, I don't know whether It was be cause of the fact that a new star was in the box or not. Anyway there was a stand of boosters there and they seemed anxious to get a line on his work. He is certainly there with the goods and performed to the satis faction of all present. In spite of the fact that he is somewhat new on the local grounds he got to going good right in the first inning. En couraged by the coachers in tho "Amen corner" he let himself loose and had them well in hand at ail times. His new Jerusalem slow-ball is a peach und when he turned loose on eternal punishment his speed was terrific. As this was the first time 1 ever saw him work out I can't pre dict the future for him, but if he can keep up the gait he has started with it's him for the big league next sea con. o The OUI Stnrv Told Again I had to promise that I'd "never tell," if she let me print It. I prom ised. Here It is: My lover came down to the gate In front and he whispered so soft to me O, well 1 remember, the hour was late, and we stood by that great big tree; and he gathered me up in his arms so strong, and his area were alight with love; and little we cared for that robbin's song the limbs of the tree above. Ills voice was aoft as a golden lyre, as he whispered his thoughts to me, and his eyes were filled with heroic lire, that wits grand for a maid to see. And what were the words that my lover said, us we etood by the Kate alone? t), how gently he lifted my drooping head, as . he said In his manly tone O, I seem to stand at the gate again, as I stood In that night this June, while the robbin murmured its happy strain in the light of a happy moon! And the glad, glad thoughts that came to my breast as he whispered those words to me! The sun was hid in the golden west, sunk low over the beau tiful hills. And my lover sighed lest his words should meet a short and cruel rebuff, as he cried in u voice that was strangely sweet, "Well has It been hot enough?" smaller Port hum, Mnbe RESTAURANT MEN MEET TO DISCUSS FOOD SAVING PLAN.

THE NFiROlORTtlANR SOUTH All good cltlxens In the South as well as in the North deplore lynch ing lawlessness and hope to see It come to an end, but very few will fall to recognise that Rev. R. C. Ran som, colored, of New York, Is as in sincere as he is absurd when h.e In timates that with a record of lynch ing In our own land we have no right to obpect to the massacre of Armen ians or the devastation of Belgium, and with pompous inaccuracy de clares that "while negro soldiers are carrying liberty and freedom across the Rhine let us carry it aown tne Mississippi." The need of carrying freedom "down the Mississippi" Ib no less im aginary than the present transporta tion of that blessing by negro sol diers 'across the Rhine." An aver- .... i it ui , I . . v M v 1 DflR th:in :i hun dred negro criminals or ausyouuiu criminals are lynched in a year, while more than nine millions of that race are left in the peaceful pur suit nf nrosnerltv and hanniness. and. on the whole, this pursuit is more; successful in the South tnan in tne Nnrth: for in the former, where he is less embarrassed by labor-union discrimination and personal dislike, the negro has a wider Industrial op-1 portunity. In the South negroes! guilty or suspected of atrocious crimes are occasionally lynched; it is Only in the North, as the cnicago in hune observes, that negroes us a class are ever "mobbed, beaten and run out of town." "The real race prejudice is ours," says the Chicago paper. "Our very philanthropists betray it. I hey suy to the black man. '(Sod bless you, i good-bye.' whereas, the South says. ' - you, come here." Or put It this way: The northerner Is a great friend of tho negro but not of a negro; the southerner Is a great friend of a nefCrO but not of the ne gro. In the North t' e negroes es cape barbarous punishment for their occasional crimes while winning no appreciation for their habitual vir tues. They are disliked. When their presence becomes a burden,, as at East St. Louis. III., they are abused. Our observation goes to show that the negro Is happiest when the white MM asserts Its superiority, provided thnt sympathy and understanding ac company the assertion. Not long ago a Virginian noticed a very gloomy hlack porter in a northern hotel, and, learning that he had come from Virginia, said, You black fool, go hark to Virginia.' The reply revealed much: 'Oh. Cunnel, dem's de fust kind wtids dat's been spoken to me since Ah come up Noff.' South erners enforce the color line, yet they will work side by side with ne groes, befriend them in adversity, and overlook their minor failings. Gradually they are working toward better surroundings for the negro. They do not hate negroes. In their henrt" they like them." Rev. R. C. Ransom, who li too dis creet to accuse the North as well as the South, would do well to ponder the sage remark of Mr. Dooley: "Us naught troubled whin the naygur is amongst his oppressors, Hinnessy. Whst troubles me is whin he falls Into the hands of his liberators." WELL LOVED MOTHER CALLEO OVER DIVIDE Mi. A. M.
